“President Trump promised millions of Christians across the country that he would create a White House Faith Office, and he delivered on that promise,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said. “The White House Faith Office has put together an extraordinary weeklong celebration for Holy Week ahead of Easter Sunday.”
Townhall notes Trump’s behavior “is a sharp difference from how the Biden Administration celebrated Holy Week last year. Former President Joe Biden marked Easter by hosting the White House’s first Transgender Day of Visibility.”
“The newly created White House Faith Office is grateful to share that President Trump will honor and celebrate Holy Week and Easter with the observance it deserves,” faith director of the White House Faith Office Jennifer Korn said, adding that it “will be a special time of prayer and worship at the White House to be shared with Americans celebrating the week leading up to Resurrection Sunday.”
On Palm Sunday, Trump shared a heartfelt video message wishing Jewish families in the United States and Israel a “blessed” Passover. On Monday he is expected to release a similar message honoring Holy Week—part of what insiders call a meaningful and unapologetically reverent celebration of Christianity. The week will culminate in a special Easter dinner on Wednesday, featuring hymns from the Marine Corps Band, a performance by Christian opera singer Charles Billingsley, prayers, and remarks from President Trump himself.
Thursday, Trump will host a staff worship service at the White House. The service will feature Rev. Franklin Graham, Pastor Greg Laurie, and Pastor Jentezen Franklin, who will lead a prayer, scripture, service, and communion.
